The control unit shown above can operate as a stand alone unit
in an autopilot system or combined in a multistation system. In a
multistation system the command can easily be transferred from
one unit to another. AP16 units not in control will display the
icon.
The AP16 system is capable of the following primary steering
modes: STBY (power steering), AUTO and NAV, each mode
having a dedicated push button.
Each of the mode push buttons is clearly identified with the
primary function in large text, and a secondary function listed in
smaller text. Each button provides you with a multiple function
mode display.
Note ! WIND mode is not applicable, hence not available in a Volvo
Penta IPS configuration.
A group of user adjustable settings are provided in the AP16
User Setup Menu (page 26).
Alarms are presented in plain text to alert you of system and
external data failure conditions. Alarms include both audible and
visual presentations. The alarm listing is on page 79.
2.2 ON/OFF - Standby mode
Note ! At first time turn on see paragraph 4.1.
A single press on the STBY button switches the system ON and
the following status displays are shown:
